In the simplest form:

$new_textcontent = 'post_field=' . $_POST['post_field'] . "\n";

$fp = fopen($filename, 'w');
fputs($fp, $new_textcontent);
fclose($fp);


I'd suggest cleaning up $_POST['post_field'] before just writing it (eg 
making sure it is only numbers, whatever data you actually want to keep 
in it).
